The Washington Wizards and the Denver Nuggets meet in Colorado. While the guests try to get out of a crisis, the hosts are showing signs of life following a rough period.
Before Betting on Wizards vs. Nuggets
The Wizards are on a cold streak that saw them losing in the past seven games and also having just one victory over the past 10. They managed to fall from a positive record to an 11-17 in just two weeks.
The most recent two games were at home, in DC, where LA Clippers and the Brooklyn Nets triumphed. LAC won 114-107, while the Nets closed the game in their favor 112-100. Washington has plenty of problems with injured players because neither Beal nor Porzingis played, and they probably won’t do it tonight.
Denver is 16-10, pushing well. They had a brief slowdown, which saw them losing three in a row, two on the road and one at home, before bouncing back and defeating the Trail Balzers in Portland, 121-120 and the Jazzers in Colorado, 115-110.
It was important for them to include Jamal Murray in the equation following his injury, and we saw the superstar guard scoring 30 buckets against the Jazzers, indicating that his form is on the rise. As for Jokic, he had a triple-double – 31 points, 14 assists and 12 boards.

Washington is injured and in poor shape, and that’s why we believe the Nuggets won’t have too much success here. Our pick would be the hosts to win and cover a -9.5-point spread. The odds on that are 1.91 at SportsBetting.ag.
